Native Instruments – SESSION GUITARIST – PICKED ACOUSTIC (KONTAKT)

Vintage acoustic guitar with steel strings, played by fingers and a plectrum by a studio professional. Play 194 real-time pick and stitch patterns, and use the melodic instrument. Use your sound with three different microphone settings and an advanced effects section.

PIK PATTERNS AND MELODIES FOR ANY PRODUCTION – Choose from two powerful KONTAKT instruments: a pattern-based instrument containing 194 authentic peak patterns and strumming, and another prepared for playing or programming for your own tunes. Each instrument is based on a carefully sampled 1973 Martin 00-21 guitar, played by a studio session veteran and recorded using vintage microphones and high-quality equipment.

3 SETTINGS, 3 SPECIAL SOUNDS – PICKED ACOUSTIC conveys Martin 00-21’s rich, clean tone – a slim-bodied Sitka guitar with a spruce top, perfect for melodic and finger-picked playing styles. Over the years, thanks to Bob Dylan, Elvis Presley, and more, 00-21 has been featured in countless hit records. Our model, an example of the original 1973, was reproduced by an experienced session professional and sampled with 3 different stereo microphone settings for maximum versatility. Microphone Condenser (AB) uses two condenser microphones for natural stereo sound with modern sound. Dynamic (MS) uses a vintage dynamic microphone to play rock and folk sounds of the 70s, amplified by a tube condenser microphone in figure-of-eight mode to adjust the stereo width. And Ribbon (Blumlein) uses two ribbon microphones for a rich and warm vintage sound.

CREATE YOUR OWN TONE – In addition to choosing microphone settings, PICKED ACOUSTIC makes it easy to adjust the stereo width, add duplication, and add high-quality studio effects. And thanks to REPLIKA’s built-in delay, as well as a completely new reverb, chorus, vintage compressor, tape saturation and much more, you get all the flexibility you need to create a guitar sound from your head

194 PATTERN AND MELODIES – If you record a track, record a jingle or just record a demo, PICKED ACOUSTIC will help you get started quickly. Choose from a huge variety of busting rhythms, arpeggios and strum patterns in a variety of styles and music genres. Download a separate instrument for melody in loops and melodies in one linked authentic performance. Then polish your performance with vibrato, strokes and jerks, as well as advanced playing techniques such as harmonics and tremolo, each of which can be played with your fingers or plectrum in several places on the fretboard. Add slides, noises, and even tune the precision of your guitar.
